Hamilton Skyhawks

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hamilton Skyhawks were a Canadian professional Basketball Team out of Hamilton, Ontario formed in 1992.

They were a professional basketball franchise based in Hamilton, Ontario that played in the World Basketball League and the National Basketball League in 1992 and 1993. The team joined the WBL as an expansion team for the 1992 season. However, the WBL folded before completion of that season. Some of the Canadian WBL teams, including the Skyhawks, formed their own league for 1993 called the National Basketball League. The Skyhawks did not complete that season either, moving to Edmonton, Alberta before the 1993 NBL playoffs.

The Skyhawks home court was the FirstOntario Center.
